Texas |
| When I first came to the Lone Star State |
| I must have stuck out like a sore thumb |
| But the people here were nice and friendly |
| And never treated me like another bum |
| Jimmie Rodgers found out first-hand |
| The generosity I found from the start |
| And though I’m not from here |
| Texas has always been in my heart |
| It’s like another country |
| It would take a lifetime to see it all |
| Like the popular saying goes |
| You couldn’t describe much here as «small» |
| I mean to say it’s big |
| But their kindness is off the charts |
| And though I’m not from here |
| Texas has always been in my heart |
| You can almost hear the Comanche drums |
| On the wind across the plain |
| And as for music, everyone knows |
| Bob Wills is still the king |
| They like their fiddles high and lonesome |
| And their rhythms and summers hot |
| And though I’m not from here |
| Texas has always been in my heart |
| Deep in the heart of Texas |
| Is a river called Guadalupe |
| And like that river, my heart |
| Flows in that sacred stoop |
| A land where even a stranger |
| Is treated with warm regards |
| Because although I’m not from here |
| Texas will remain in my heart |
